| Amazing machine. Good looks and a powerful engine to back it up. Plus its got the name of a legend behind it. I wonder what type of 1/4 mile times it would click off, and how fast it would be around a track... |

| Its a nice car, but I'm a little cheesed that they went and redid the Daytona like this. After the GT and that new edge V10 cobra concept they did I would have hoped that Jay and the boys would have been able to come up with at least one original idea instead of just rehashing the older ones. |

gt40 or the GT
personally i could give to shits about the mileage i get if i had a car like that. My car only gets 10-12 MPG now, i could care less. I would still fill it whenever i needed even if premium was 2 bucks a litre |

| That why you're a car guy. Because it doesn't matter as long as you can have you're toy. :D |

exactly, if you're driving something like this or a fordGT then you're obviously not going to bitch and complain because you dont get good gas mileage.
its the price you pay.
thats kinda like bitching about the non-power windows in the enzo ferarri... B.F.D. |

| the design looks like a straight rip-off of the Aston Martin DB-9. not suprising considering Ford owns them, of course originality is not something they have alot of lately |

That is exactly where Mr. Shelby ripped the lines off of.
Not to take away from the man, but again, this is a world or copy this, copy that. If someone else comes up with an original design, you better believe that someone else is going to steal some "inspiration" |

I don't think it is the cost of operation so much as the overall practicality of the car.
225 Km/tank on average for the GT.
You couldn't even go to Calgary on a full tank of gas. |

| Thats a really good way of looking at it.. HONDA OWNS YOU because all its cars get good gas mileage, as long as you don't mess with them to much. |

That's great. They're mostly all slow as ass too, if you don't mess with them A LOT!
Again, why would you compare a Honda to a Shelby? Damn it people. Leave the fruit basket alone. To many people comparing apples and oranges. |
